North South Media asked What if SEO & Search Had Action Figures and does a stellar job of finding suitable plastic-versions of our favorite search faces. Perhaps I’m partial because she’s my BFF, but Tamar Weinberg’s is dead on.

From The Old outlined the different types of bloggers. I’m not sure where exactly I fit in. Hopefully it’s one of the good types.

Anyone know what was up with Barry Schwartz this week? He kept asking people to pownce on him. I’m not sure what that was about. I wonder what his wife would say?

Cats had a really good week. First, 10 month old Gracie made headlines by jumping into her owner’s suitcase, hitching a ride on a plane, and then going home with a stranger. Luckily she safely returned to her owner. Ah, reunited and it feels so good.

After Gracie, we got to meet Charley, a kitty with cerebellar hypoplasia and a really big heart. Don’t you just want to adopt him and snuggle with him forever?

My friend Taylor Pratt (go check out his blog, too) brought my attention to a guide for what to do when you’ve had a little too much fun juice. We’ve all been there, like say, at a search conference. As the article describes, it’s really all about getting home without embarrassing yourself or the person you work for. How much longer til SMX West?

CoolStuff offered up some advice on dos and don’ts with babies. In case you weren’t sure, picking up a baby by the head, throwing it in the dryer (or 10 feet in the air), and putting it either a drawer or a cage are all bad. Unless you’re Britney. Then perhaps putting it in a drawer is the preferable option.

Gentlemen, listen up. Valentines Day is approaching. Please take note of the wonderful post: Valentines Day, My Ass and avoid getting your lady friend a blender. Or a vacuum. No one wants a vacuum on Valentines Day, even if it is a really, really good one. Got it?

The Eco-Cook pot means maybe I won’t have to wash every cooking utensil I have when making a dinner.

Susan always complains I put bad pictures of her on the blog, so here’s a better one. If I’m not here on Monday you’ll know why. [At this point, is it even worth pointing out that you’re fired? -Susan]
